AutoCorrect allows TOTAL to automatically replace misspelled words as you
make your way through your report. The replacement words are stored in a
user-defined dictionary — allowing you to add or remove entries to fit your
needs. From here, you can also create text expansion entries to type a report
even faster. Instead of writing full words or phrases you type in shorthand and
TOTAL fills in the rest.
To enable or disable AutoCorrect & Text expansion:

AutoCorrect and Typing Shortcuts.
